As a perpetually hungry and tired Gator, obtaining free food is a must. Of course, you could show up to an academic club you’re not interested in that offers pizza for attending; however, that requires commitment and putting on pants. If you have storage on your phone (unlike myself — too many game day selfies), a great way to get free food is through downloading these amazing apps.
Moe’s Rockin Rewards
Moe’s gives you a free burrito when you download the app. Be warned: it takes a day or two to show up after you download the app. Also, it isn’t valid on the campus location. I made that fatal mistake (R.I.P. to my bank account).
DD Perks
Are you cramming but don’t have the budget for your usual PSL from Starbucks? Just hop over to either Midtown location, and download the Dunkin' Donuts app for a free beverage. Happy studying!
Tropical Smoothie Café
Download the Tropical Smoothie Café app and receive five dollars credit towards anything on the menu. Yes, anything.
Steak N’ Shake Rewards
Get a free milkshake from Steak n’ Shake with your first purchase through the app. Arguably, this is the perfect post-game meal.
MyDQ App
Dairy Queen is giving free small Blizzards to those who download the app. If your life is upside down, like this treat, getting one of these will pick it right back up. Or it’ll dig you deeper into your spiral — it’s debatable, TBH.
Gigi’s Cupcakes
While this isn’t an app, it certainly is worth the cheat meal. Sign up for their club through their website, and you’ll get a free cupcake for joining, as well as a free cupcake on your birthday.
Why pay money when you don’t have to? Worst case scenario, the apps can always be uninstalled. Taking a few minutes to try these out will allow you to ball out on meals without having to bail out of college.
